About Israel Independence Day (Yom Ha’atzmaut)

Yom Ha’atzmaut (Hebrew: יום העצמאות‎ Yôm hā-‘Aṣmā’ûṯ lit. “Independence Day“) is the national day of Israel, commemorating the Israeli Declaration of Independence in 1948. It is celebrated either on the 5th of Iyar, according to the Hebrew calendar, or on one of the preceding or following days, depending on which day of the week this date falls on. Yom Ha’atzmaut is preceded by Yom Hazikaron, the Israeli Fallen Soldiers and Victims of Terrorism Remembrance Day. (wikipedia)
